Wifi problems in iOS 6.0

 

Apple Maps aren't the only iOS 6.0 blunder these days. Hundreds of users report a problem related to the Wifi connectivity on your devices. Basically, since the affected users updated to iOS 6 they are not able to connect to any Wi-Fi signal and there are even some people who cannot even activate Wi-Fi on their devices.

It is a problem that is not fixed simply by restoring the device and that already has almost 98 pages of comments on the Apple website. The company has not yet commented on the matter, but it is probably already working hard to launch a new one as soon as possible iOS 6 first update to fix these problems.

Are you also having problems with the Wi-Fi of your iOS device?

    Hello, I have not had any problem with the wifi in ios 6 and I have an iphone 4s, for me this version of the operating system works perfectly, super fluid and the battery lasts a little longer.

  2.   andres said

    I do, the button remains gray without being able to select, but I think the wifi was damaged because when I went down from the beta of ios 6 to 5.xx the option was enabled but I did not get any network, so I think the antenna was hurt.

      Go to Settings -> Wi-Fi, turn the network on and off

      Restart iPhone or iPad (you have to hold the "Home" and "Power" buttons for 5-10 seconds, and then turn on as usual)

      Change HTTP proxy in Auto mode: Settings -> Wi-Fi -> blue arrow next to network. It worked perfectly for me

    every time I realize that Apple is a WHY! nor because they have few iDevices they can do things well !!! .. nor can large companies such as LG, Samguns, etc., that bring out many smartphones !!

  4.   Esteban said

    I have updated an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2 and I have no problem in either of them. I have noticed an improvement in fluidity on the iphone and perhaps a little less battery life.
    Hope they solve the problem for those who have problems.

  5.   spicychop said

     ... well I join Antoniomanu with his comment, it goes much faster for me and the
    battery lasts longer than with previous iOS, although I have to say that
    It only restarted a couple of times.

    Today I went to the genius bar because I could not activate the wifi or search for networks since I updated to IOS 6 and nothing ... they have changed it for another Iphone 4S because they said that they could not fix it, without further explanation.

    Goodnight !! I have had problems with Wi-Fi connections and since the update, the videos and photos that you pass through whatsapp have been left hanging !!

    In Chile, the answer that Apple and Movistar gave me was Super Clara.
     "PUT YOUR IPHONE UP YOUR ASS"

    They didn't even let me return it ... But now I'm happy with my SIII. The truth is Apple is starting to fail a lot .. «Not to mention the change of the Connector» «The chip they put in» My Macbook Air failed with 2 months and I was 30 days without Team! ...

    I switch from Microsoft to Apple and I fall in love ... 2 years later apple is the same garbage as Microsoft ... PLOP ...

    1.    franklin said

      I forgot to add! The Iphone had HOURS !!!! I had bought it in the morning

    2.    Romanic said

      I updated my iPhone 4S and iPad 2, both immediately went without wifi, I did everything in the forums, until I tried to restore the previous version of iOS with iTunes, although I could not for the iPad, the problem was partially solved.
      For the iPhone there is no case, I have already done everything .. And when it succeeded
      Connecting takes seconds, it has me really tired and I have no solution.

  11.   Helio Vidal Barron Maldonado said

    Everything perfect on my iPhone 4S, the system feels faster, the Wi-Fi behaves like iOS 5 and Siri works perfectly, the integration with Facebook and Twiitter has not given problems
    App Store without bugs
    Faster camera
    and the Maps are good, many establishments already appear in my area, it gives correct indications, only the quality of the satellite images are very bad xD

    greetings from Mexico.

      I have 2 iphones, one 4s and one 3gs, and a new ipad… all updated to ios6 without any problem, only the 4s I have noticed that being blocked only changes from wifi to 3g .. apple maps, no comments… ALL GOOD I LIVE IN MEXICALI BAJA CALIFORNIA MEXICO, 3 MINUTES FROM THE USA BORDER

  12.   Salomon said

    Right, my iphone 4 when updating to iOS6 connects to wi-fi when it wants, not when it is ordered is a nuisance, I hope an update soon.

  13.   dryamos said

    I have problems with the wifi on my iphone 5 is very slow !!!! I have read in forums that some have solved the problem by connecting to networks without a password or with a wep password, others say that taking it to the apple store has also solved it, but I think this depends on an apple update…., someone to fixed this ???

  14.   spyrovila said

    I am going to provide my conclusions, after being in a K-tuin store and having the iPhone 5 in my hands (I was going to buy it as I always do as soon as Apple products come out), I came to the conclusion that it is not worth the shame, and this time I'm not going to buy the last iPhone and I'll keep the one I have. Gentlemen of Apple as you do not put the batteries in innovation they are going to overwhelm you, because for me it is not worth changing from my 4S to the 5, it would be wrong to spend the money, which by the way is also quite a lot.

  15.   Carlos said

    When I synchronize my iphone 5 with itunes via wifi sometimes in the middle of synchronization it says that it cannot continue because it cannot find the phone

  16.   sDF said

    I have updated 4 devices and I have not had the slightest problem with the wifi, there must be something specific with a specific HW that is giving the failure, if it were IOS 6 EVERYONE would have problems, it is logical that apple does not pronounce, that to some fail does not imply a problem of IOS 6

  17.   CellularForSale.com said

    Hello ... I greet you from Houston, Tx and the truth is that I have not had problems of any kind, neither with WIFI nor with maps and I am on a 4S with IOS6 and an iPhone 5 and both work perfectly!

    1.    contreras_ever said

      Maps seem like rubbish to me! Nothing like those of IO 5.0.1 those of IO6 do not even allow me to trace a route between two points: S gives me a message of (no route can be found): S has the 3D and everything is very nice but what good is it if I can't find anything ...

  18.   guest said

    From Venezuela, Bolívar State, Ciudad Guayana. Iphone 4S with iO6. Regarding Wifi I have no problem. Regarding the maps, it does not locate me as exact as it did before, the difference in my position is quite distant, with respect to the identification of avenues, streets, cities, restaurants, hotels and among others it is quite out of date with respect to Google Maps.

  19.   Clark johnson said

    I also have problems with my Iphone 4S, I updated it to version 6.0, 3 days passed and the WIIFI died as did the BLUETOOTH, neither of them let me activate them ... I restored it from iTunes and nothing ... I have not gone to Movistar from Chile, let's see what they tell me ... the New iPad is excellent and the Apple TV too

  20.   Grandfather said

    I have had this problem, and I just found out from this article that I am not the only one; my wife and I have many problems with the WIFI; I have had to eliminate the usual WIFIs, add them again and even so, the navigation gets stuck, that is, browse for a little while and then, whoops, stop browsing.

    1.    dryamos said

      that happens to me tb! aber if apple solves it…., is it with an iphone 5 ???

  21.   Arnau font said

    I have noticed some wifi problem on my iphone, I am not going to give it more importance at the moment

  22.   packon1 said

    I have problems with connectivity !! My WiFi is fine but my iphone disconnects and I have to search for a network again to connect… .. I hope this problem is solved or I will have to restore it with the previous iOS, I had no problems connecting !!!!!!

    Being connected to the wiffi of my home, after 10 minutes the terminal is disconnected. When you try again, it is no longer possible to reconnect ... I hope solutions to this matter, since Apple should not allow itself this type of luxury.

    I have problems being with my wifi at my home. My iphone loses wifi after a certain time when I am watching videos on YouTube and it goes into 3g mode. This causes my bill to increase at the end of the month.

    1.    Ryuk said

      Yes, my friend, the same thing happens to me but only in the wifi at my home since in my work it is quite the opposite I have tried it in different wifi and some it fails and others not curiously in which this happens they are less than 3 megabytes like this What a solution that helped me turn off your modem for about 5 minutes then restart it and ready it is worth mentioning that if it is occupied by many people at the same time that is also a reason that sometimes it saturates and therefore fails a little greetings I hope your problem is resolved

  34.   Attilapdf said

    Hi, I have an iPhone 4S and since it has been updated to IOS 6, the wifi is harder for me: I mean, it connects when it wants and loses it anyway. Another thing is that before I found everyone around me and now they only seem 1 or 2.

  35.   roger said

    I currently have that problem and I have already done everything and I cannot solve it, the Wi-Fi activation screen is gray and I cannot do anything to activate it

    1.    Borch206 said

      Transfer the apps to itunes and restore as "new iPhone" I suppose that this way it will stop malfunctioning

      1.    Clau Rodriguez said

        That doesn't work, I have the same problem, I restored it as a new iPhone and it remains exactly the same…. it's frustrating….

    1.    pelegiorge said

      Go back to Movistar and demand that they give you a new one if it is still under warranty, I did it and reported it to INDEPABIS and they immediately changed it to me.

  37.   lenin alexander said

    Hello, good morning ... today I have a problem with my iphone 4, it happens that I wanted to connect via Wi FI but the connection refused, I mean it connects for 3 seconds and a page that says update of adobe reader opens (in portuguez) and it only gives me the option to cancel ... please, if the same thing happened to someone, I will greatly appreciate your answers. Lenin Diaz

  38.   papo figueroa said

    They changed the start button because I had problems, but once I changed the iphone 4 it began to have signal problems, weak both in the gps and in the wifi, what could it be ????

  40.   lilac said

    Well, he got an iPhone 4s a month, the speakers didn't work or the speaker now, at eight months, because I already get that the wifi doesn't work, mmm I think they must give us a real solution or they'll always apologize

  41.   izombiedeapple said

    I have 2 iphones, one 4s and one 3gs, and the new ipad ... all updated to ios6 without any problem, only the 4s I have noticed that being blocked only changes from wifi to 3G, but there is no problem because I have unlimited 3g internet, but I have no connectivity failures, apple maps, no comments… ALL WELL LIVE IN MEXICALI BAJA CALIFORNIA MEXICO, 3 MINUTES FROM THE USA BORDER I hope your problem is solved for everyone!

  42.   gabrielC said

    TERRIBLY, I UPDATED MY IPHONE TO THE LATEST VERSION 6.0.1 AND THE WIFI DOES NOT WORK FOR ME I HAVE TO BE STICKED TO THE ROUTER TO GET SIGNAL

    1.    KIMBAGIRL said

    2.    alex said

      could you solve that already? My iPhone is the same and I don't know what to do anymore, I can't even use facetime xk because it requires Wi-Fi

    3.    Santy Acosta Goalkeeper said

      How about corduroy, I have the same problem, I have to be 1 meter from the router to get a signal, you know how to solve it, I have an iphone 5 with ios 6.1.4

  51.   Nicasio said

    I have IPhone 4s update to iOS6 and it worked fine until after the last upgrade on February 4, when the WIFI began to fail and today February 7, 2013 it has been gray. i dont know what to do there is no apple tech support

  52.   Peter said

    Since I update it to IOS 6.1. I have had problems connecting to wi fi, or lose the signal and use 3G, what happens Apple?

  53.   gadiel said

    I just upgraded to ios 6.1 and it gave me the problem of wifi I cannot activate it

  54.   Jose said

    Yes damn since I updated the ios6 my wifi connection It is super slow, even though I have tried to solve the problem I have not been able to

  55.   Aroa Res del Rio said

    The wifi at home does not stop giving me problems ...

    1.    Darkhunter hellsing said

      There is no obvious solution, if you have a guarantee, that they change your device, there is an untested method (which I will do with a friend's iPhone) and it requires a jailbreak that could recover it.

  56.   Fernando Rafael Gomez Sanchez said

    I have an iPhone 4S shopping at the Apple store in Washington. Since I bought it and after 15 days it has been impossible for me to have a stable WiFi connection. Simply the WiFi address of the phone is deleted (It appears N / A Not Applicable ???) The WiFi activation button appears in Gray (greyed out) I already have version 6.1.1 of the iOS and I still have problems. I am already beginning to think that it is Hardware… My experience with Apple is very bad.

  57.   Urb Rodriguez Vargas said

    I update my iphone to version 6.1.2 and it still won't let me turn on my wifi, what can I do in this case?

  58.   trams said

    Well, I see that a lot has been said about the problem that IOS 6, 6.0.1 and even 6.1 generate with Wifi and Bluetooh. Well, I've been testing with all these IOS and the signal is definitely weak and fluctuates horribly. I have released my iPhone 4 from the factory and I have the SHSH Backups from 4.3 to IOS 6.1 so I have no difficulty to go from one version to another and test the quality of both signals, in the case of WiFi with a Linksys router up to 30 meters and bluetooh at about 8 meters with the equipment in my car (JVC KD-AVX33). Conclusion: The best signal in both cases was with IOS 5.1.1. Good signal and fluctuations are minimal even at the aforementioned distances. So I recommend users to have their SHSH saved, downgrade to the aforementioned version and holy remedy ... While Apple fixes the damn problem once and for all ... I think it should receive a bit of assistance from Microsoft that they improve every time their products and these in the opposite case ...

  59.   ivan said

    I bought my iPhone about 6 months ago and I downloaded the updates from 6.0.1 to the aforementioned about a month ago and my computer has gone from bad to worse ... it has started to crash before starting the applications or it immediately takes me out of them, and it does 2 days ago I stopped recognizing the wi-fi signals that I have always connected to and that with any other android or ovi phone and even blackberry connect without problems…. I tried to ask for technical advice online or technical support call and it is a blow they ask me for my purchase invoice since according to them my warranty period expired a year ago ... it is incredible to see how a company as soon as its creator dies and it becomes a fiasco ... !!!!!

  60.   zoraida said

    I bought an iphone 4 ios 6 and now I have problems with the wi-fi, how do I solve it ?????

  61.   francis said

    I report the same problem with the WIFI, my iphone does not detail or connect with any wifi network. The rare times it does connect, it is immediately disconnected as soon as you start using the network. Another problem that I report is that the main screen is zoomed and there is no way to return it to its normal state. I have to juggle to be able to restart it, and that fixes it.

  62.   ADRODRILL said

    Well, the truth is that I have been with the Iphone 4 for about 5 months and if it is true that it is giving me problems regarding the Wi-Fi connection, it connects and disconnects by itself, and the truth is that a macro company like Apple should not have these problems and If this is the case, do not delay in solving it, they cannot afford it, given the cost of the terminal.

  63.   Santos said

    I hope you can achieve the solution quickly because it is getting something annoying to put the Wi-Fi password to my iPhone 5 every time, I hope I do not regret to see me change the brand of cell. Thanks

  64.   sofia said

    I have an iphone 4s, it still can't connect to wifi in any way, I made all the attempts and nothing, what a pity Apple

    1.    Alfonso said

      Hello friend, I send you a cordial greeting, I just a few hours ago I just gave a solution to my Iphone 4, with the same problem as yours, due to the new update of -IOS 6, just heat it with a hair dryer, when the Iphone is hot enough it will throw you an alert and you will not be able to move anything…. calm down, nothing happens, when you have been alerted, you just have to remove the dryer, wait until it cools, when it has cooled down, you can access all your applications, once it allows you to move it, enter settings, then general, then you go to where it says reset, then reset network settings. And believe me, when it turns on again and it restores it will work to perfection, I did not believe until I was left with another option but to do it, like many, I did not believe until I try, good luck friend ...

  65.   Alexander said

    After having all the iPhone models I have made the decision not to buy anything that has to do with Apple again. very abusive by leaving us with no wiffi signal and without apologizing to say the least.

    My phone iphone 5 can not connect to wi fi, I put the correct password and I designed: incorect password.
    The other devices can be connected, an iPhone 5 for my wife and another old iPhone 4 for my computer if they work correctly.
    I have already reset the settings and it can't be done. What can I do?

  69.   John Anastasius said

    I have an iPhone 4 s and since I update it I have problems capturing Wi-Fi networks or the Wi-Fi disconnected appears directly and it does not let me connect it and when it connects quickly, it loses the connection. I hope that Apple will quickly solve this problem because otherwise we will have to turn to android systems that apparently do not have these problems.

  70.   ALFONSO said

    waooo, I can't believe that this problem is solved so easily, if the wi fi tab appears in gray on your iphone, just heat it with a hair dryer until you throw the high temperature alarm, as soon as you get it. throw, remove the dryer, wait until it cools down and lets you move it, when you can move it, enter settings, then general, then reset, and give it where it says reset network settings, and voila. THIS IS TRUE, I LIKE MANY DIDN'T BELIEVE, BUT I WAS NO OTHER OPTION BUT TO TRY IT, AND IT TRULY WORKED… THANK YOU VERY MUCH… ..

  71.   danny said

    goddamn thieves my iphone they tell me that it has no solution with the wi-fi problem I give it to activate the fi-fi and it does not want to activate kabrone let's go abel what do you do with that problem pork they are all going to fall for thieves is that supposed to it has to have a fix.

  73.   borjiita19 said

    It is already the second time that it happens to me, the first time I was 5 days without being able to activate it and after 5 days it worked again but it is that I have already been 8 days and I cannot connect to Wi-Fi I get the bar in gray and it is uncomfortable for me because at home I prefer to be with the wifi network than spending my internet
